I love snickerdoodle cookies, and I love donuts. And usually I like making either from scratch. But some days you just don’t have the time or energy to make a completely homemade dessert! Which is why I’m so happy I came up with this easy Baked Snickerdoodle Donuts recipe! It combines two of my favorite desserts! And with a box mix as a base, these donuts take only minutes to put together, making them a perfect quick dessert for busy days, or a quick breakfast treat!

The cake mix I used in these baked snickerdoodle donuts is a seasonal fall one. If you don’t see it in your local stores, consider checking any seasonal foods section that may exist. Or wait a week or two until they stock all their fall foods.
This recipe is so easy, your kids could definitely help out! Little kids may enjoy squeezing the donut mixture in the pan’s wells, or can help dusting the finished donuts in cinnamon sugar!
